Omalizumab tahmin edilenden daha uzun remisyon sağlıyor: Gözlemsel bir çalışma

Amaç: Omalizumab, antihistaminlere dirençli kronik ürtiker tedavisinde kullanılan monoklonal anti IgE antikorudur. Her dört haftada bir uygulama önerilmektedir. Yöntem: Kronik ürtiker tanısıyla izlenen 15 hastanın subkutan omalizumab tedavisine yanıtı yaş, cinsiyet, ürtiker süresi ve şiddetinin omalizumab ile elde edilen remisyon süresine etkisi incelendi. Bulgular: Yaş ortalaması 43.9±7.8 olan 8 kadın 7 erkek hastada ortalama 6.26±2.7 hafta remisyon sağlandı. Yaş, cinsiyet, ürtiker süre ve şiddeti remisyon süresini etkilemezken, ürtikerine astım eşlik eden hastalarda remisyon süresinin kısa olduğu gözlendi. Sonuç: Omalizumab dört hafta olarak belirlenen etki süresinden daha uzun remisyon sağlamaktadır.

Omalizumab maintains a longer remission period than predicted: An observational study

Objective: Omalizumab is a monoclonal anti-IgE antibody used in the treatment of chronic urticaria resistant to antihistamines. Its application every four weeks is recommended. Methods: The effects of age, gender, duration and severity of urticaria on the duration of remission achieved with omalizumab on the response of 15 patients with a diagnosis of chronic urticaria to subcutaneous omalizumab therapy were investiagted. Results: Remission was achieved for an average of 6.26±2.7 weeks in 8 female and 7 male patients with a mean age of 43.9±7.8 years. While age, gender, duration and severity of urticaria did not affect the remission period, it was observed that the remission period was short in patients with urticaria accompanied by asthma. Conclusion: Omalizumab provides a longer remission than the four-week duration of action.
